What is your favorite web tool that we have used in class so far this year? Why is it your favorite web tool? What do you like about it? How can you use it again in the future?
My favorite web tool we have used in this class so far has been Google Docs. It has been my favorite because I like how you can access it at school and at home. Also I liked how you could share it with others and have them post comments. It really helped me improve my paper and edit it through Google Docs.

Tell me about your weekend.
This weekend I didn't do much. On Friday night I went to the Blue Valley vs. Blue Valley Southwest football game. Blue Valley won 47-3, so that was awesome! On Saturday morning I had to go to work at 8 a.m. and work until noon. On Sunday, I also had to work. I didn't get to do much this weekend but I made a lot of money working!

What makes a presentation memorable? What makes a presentation stand out and not boring? How are you going to make your presentation better than anyone else? How will you make it unique? Explain.
I think there are lots of things that can make a presentation memorable. One that I personally think is a good quality is a lot of visuals. I like visuals because it catches the person's eye and can leave the image in the person's mind. A visual can also carry information such as a graph. In my presentation I'm going to have some very interesting facts and statistics that will be interesting. I will also have a few visuals.

What did you learn from the Ted Talk yesterday? Did you find it interesting or accurate? Explain.
I learned about how technology affects us and our social skills. It talked about how technology can be a good thing and really help us throughout our life, but it also can take away a lot of our communication and relationship skills. Instead of having a seat down face-to-face talk with someone, we know just send a text. That personal interaction we are losing affects us more than we think.

What do you love about the "digital age" that we currently live in? What do you dislike about it? What are positives ways you use technology in your life? What are some things that come along with technology that you don't like? Explain.
I think the digital age is good to live in because of all the technology that is available for us to use. We use technology so much every single day and without it our lives would be totally different. Something I would say I dislike about it is how it effects our social skills since we all communicate through technology now. Also some kids use technology to do things like cyber-bully. Overall I think that technology is very important in our society today.

Tell me about your Homecoming weekend (whether you went to the activities or not!). Tell me about what you did over the weekend.
This weekend I traveled to Phoenix Arizona. On my trip I visited Arizona State University. It was really cool and I enjoyed visiting. Also my mom's best friend, Jennifer, had her 50th birthday party too. We stood at her house over the weekend and I had a really good time at the big party. Overall the weekend was a huge success! I had a ton of fun and enjoyed being out in the sun.
